Surrounded by a beautiful natural landscapeof mountains and greenery, started this

spiritual adventure of going to the depths ofbeing, with the spiritual support of Babathrough Sister Moira (NC of Argentina).

In a simple and fun way, Sister Moira guidedthe deep exploration of each spiritualprinciple (gyan, yoga, good company,

vegetarian diet and purity) in each day of theretreat.

For the final day a very special Raksha Bandhanceremony took place in which Baba gave powerful

experiences.

A brahmin celebration with Peruvian and Hindidances took place as well.

The next two days right after the retreat, a tour tothe Inca city of Machu Picchu was conducted, also to

the city of Cusco and other nearby archaeologicalcities. During this tour, besides appreciating thewonder of human history we served through the

vibration of Baba as well.

Baba and the young participants colored theretreat’s atmosphere with their joy, art, depth, andhonest and brave heart. Each moment of the retreatwas full of the magic subtle presence of Baba and the

special energy of each one of the participants.

During the retreat the youth said that they hadbrought with them different experiences.

Renzo from PerúThe most transcendental learning of this retreat was the certainty of Baba´s

accompaniment. I felt him with me, accompanying me; present in my intellect and even at the physical level as an elevated sensation. Feeling His presence gave me clarity and a faith I had never felt before: endless,

unconditional and transcending any paradigm I had registered. I understood the responsibility and the honor of being an instrument of His

love.

Erica from BrasilThe retreat was wonderful. To share with people whose goal is self transformation brings up encouragement, enthusiasm and power to be put into practice. The chance to reflect, share, and receive classes on “Keeping the Greatness of the Being” filled me up with true happiness and led me even closer to the Supreme Soul; and with this I feel that I

make faster progress. I am already looking forward to the next retreat!!

Carina from GermayThis meeting –in a quiet place, with such a clean vibration and an ample view

of the whole area– helped me to re-awaken original energies which were slightly asleep, such as enthusiasm, happiness, motivation and creativity.

I valued the group as a whole, easily overcoming language differences, age, experiences, on the basis of deep honesty, openness and real

interest towards each other, and through a continuous introspective regard. Each one´s majesty emerged naturally and visibly! Thanks for

these experiences.

Tomás from ChileIt is amazing when you find yourself surrounded with Young souls, optimistic, eager, energetic and committed. The being infuses itself of this too. It was there where I evidenced during those days “If am well, those who are closet to me will be well too”. How incredible what your mind can do when you train it in the morning, afternoon and evening.

Ricardo from ColombiaIt was a splendid gift to be able to experiment the novelty in our relationships

with Baba: as children, students and disciples, as well as experiencing our condition of brethren and heirs with a wonderful family in a

marvelous land.

Verónica from ArgentinaThe experience of the Youth Retreat in Cusco was wonderful. I experimented

Baba´s company even before I arrived in this city; it was all very special. Also the company and support I received from the families of Argentina and Peru, and then with Nicola doing service with a smile in his face at

the airport. They took care of every detail! It was very valuable days, full of joy, happiness, cooperation, enthusiasm, freedom and inner peace. It was a retreat full of experiences and reflections, of sharing every second of this beautiful brahmin life and of Baba´s magic with our young Latin

American brothers.

Indira from BoliviaBefore arriving in the Youth Retreat my concept of family was somehow more

mundane. I had no idea that one can create such divine bonds with wonderful souls who give you the chance to experiment a state of

magical subtleness…But, what else could I expect? I was surrounded by angels.

Some notes during the retreat

Sister´s Moira class about Yoga

Yoga: it's like a metamorphosis. We transform ourselves in the privacy of the yoga.Knowledge is the raw material.The importance of seeing and experiencing. yoga as the love story.I do not do yoga, I'm a yogi.When a BK says he has no time for himself it is because he is neglecting his hours of sustenance from 4:00 a.m. to 8:00 a.m.

1. Introversion. Disconnect from the service, the body and the roles.

2. Choose a topic. ¿What for the meditation? Make an interesting yoga to address the needs of the soul. Reflect about the topic I want to experience.

3. Concentration. Feelings associated with the thought emerge.

4. Experience. I perceive my feelings.5. Observation. Observe the experience I'm having.6. Surrender to the experience. Volcanic Yoga is an experience

so intense that nothing external could stop it.7. Newness. One experience leads to new truths for the soul.

Being a good student is related to being a good yogi.8. Register my process. Write my own process.

8 Steps for a good Yoga

Yoga is relationship. Baba wants exclusivity, make God part of my life. Baba has a relationship with us as possessive, wants us all to himself. How much I feel His love for me is proportional to how much I takeMotivate yourselfBaba is the surgeon. To do surgery is needed to leave the family, enter the operating room naked and stay very still.Check: What is what helps me to maintain my relationship with Baba?What I seek is perfection, so I look for Baba, I must be obedient.Know what I want from each relationship with Baba.
